It is also the only way to pump any Hobbit in that format without depending on another culture.

	''In this ~~section, describe:''~~		With a sword, Impatient and Angry gets Sam up to 8 strength: enough to survive a strong minion, but only enough to beat the weakest ones in a skirmish. Holding two or more in hand may allow Sam to win a wider variety of skirmishes but will leave him nearly dead and clog up your hand until then. In Towers block, that about sums up the value of this card.

	* ''General usage''		In Towers standard, however, {{Card\|A Promise}} and {{Card\|Rosie Cotton, Hobbiton Lass}} provides the base strength to win skirmishes. {{Card\|The Shire Countryside}} offers a reason to remove burdens in the middle of a skirmish -- to heal back {{Card\|Boromir, Son of Denethor}}, {{Card\|Merry, Friend to Sam}}, or exertions caused by {{Card\|Sting, Baggins Heirloom}}. This can be one of the best ways to rearm the Fellowship for a double move.
	* ''Unorthodox or subtle usage''
	* '~~'Common pitfalls~~ of ~~using this card''~~		Remember that you don't always have to have more strength than the opponent to win. If removing burdens to trigger {{Card\|The Shire Countryside}} is your real goal, playing a copy and then using {{Card\|Cliffs of Emyn Muil}} to kill a minion with 1 vitality will achieve the same effect. {{Card\|Mind Your Own Affairs}} and {{Card\|No Use That Way}} can also be used for a choke deck that is already playing {{Card\|Sam, Faithful Companion}}.

	''In this ~~section~~, ~~describe:''~~		In Towers block, there are no other choices for increasing Sam's strength beyond what {{Card\|Hobbit Sword}} can offer and sometimes (as {{Card\|Sam, Nice Sensible Hobbit}} typically can't benefit from {{Card\|Severed His Bonds}}) no other choices for increasing his survivability. Even that is not reason enough to include Impatient and Angry. Because of the lack of support in the format, Fellowships including Sam tend to just let him die or have him take The Ring after killing Frodo to clear burdens. {{Card\|Brace of Coneys}} is a much more reliable way of peeling burdens, while {{Card\|Sam, Samwise the Brave}} can use his vitality to keep burdens from being added in the first place.

			In Towers standard, {{Card\|The Shire Countryside}} provides some incentive for using the event and {{Card\|A Promise}} can even make winning skirmishes an obtainable goal. {{Card\|Frodo's Cloak}} is more reliable and should often be prioritized in a deck, but if a player wants to remove burdens in a skirmish more than once or twice over the course of the game its uniqueness can get in the way. Impatient and Angry is a reasonable solution in these circumstances, the only other alternative being {{Card\|Stout and Sturdy}} + {{Card\|Extraordinary Resilience}}.

			Though it seems to be doing double duty as a strength pump and a burden removal tool, that it can only benefit Sam makes it a liability at times. Frodo in particular will need skirmish pumps so it should take a backseat to {{Card\|Hobbit Intuition}} and potentially even {{Card\|Hobbit Stealth}}. Relying too heavily this event (to heal back exertions on {{Card\|Boromir, Son of Denethor}} with The Shire Countryside, for example) makes a deck extremely vulnerable to condition discarding.

	* ''Cards and ~~strategies this card~~ works ~~well with~~''		Once you get to [[Movie block]] and beyond, {{Card\|Nine-fingered Frodo and the Ring of Doom}} achieves the real desired function (removing burdens in a skirmish) better in every way: it works in the middle of a skirmish, it works regardless of who is skirmishing, and it doesn't require any specific companion to have spare vitality. {{Card\|So Fair, So Desperate}} and {{Card\|Chance Observation}} from King block are the best strength pumps ever printed for Hobbits and should always be chosen first in a {{C\|Shire}} deck. If you're not playing Hobbits specifically and just need a bit of insurance to keep Sam (or any other Hobbit) alive, {{Card\|The Tale of the Great Ring}} is unmatched. {{Card\|Hope is Kindled}} tries to carry on the torch in War of the Ring, but if you're able to pick between the two then the correct choice is neither.
	* ''Cards and ~~strategies this card works particularly well~~ or ~~poorly against''~~
	* ''Alternate cards you might consider picking instead of ~~this one, depending~~ on the ~~situation~~, ~~including alternate version of characters'~~'
